Bind to a property of a parent element in wpf

'I want to bind the Height property of the RichTextBox to the Height Property of the GridView`s Row. How can I do that? I do not know how to get the Row's Height as I can not access the Row in xaml what I would like to do.

The Ancestor type should be GridViewHeaderRow , but I do not know its level...

EDIT:

 <my:RadGridView  Height="524" R开发者_开发知识库owHeight="300" ItemsSource="{Binding Lessons}" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Name="dataGrid1" VerticalAlignment="Top" SelectionMode="Single" CanUserSortColumns="False" IsFilteringAllowed="False">

            <my:RadGridView.Columns>
                <my:GridViewDataColumn  DataMemberBinding="{Binding SchoolclassName}" Header="Schoolclass" Width="0.1*" />
                <my:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding SubjectName}"     Header="Subject"      Width="0.1*" />

                <my:GridViewDataColumn  Width="0.3*" Header="Homework">

I don't know about your RadGridView here. But the first thing I'd try is using a RelativeSource Binding with FindAncestor to walk up the visual tree until a GridViewHeaderRow is found and bind to its Height property.

 ... Height="{Binding Height, 
              RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, 
                                 AncestorType={x:Type GridViewHeaderRow }}}" ...

You may have to walk up the tree to find the RadGridView and then walk back down it to the header row.

 ... Height="{Binding HeaderRow.Height, 
              RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, 
                                 AncestorType={x:Type RadGridView }}}" ...

or

 ... Height="{Binding Rows[0].Height, 
              RelativeSource={RelativeSource Mode=FindAncestor, 
                                 AncestorType={x:Type RadGridView }}}" ...

Depends on the implementation of RadGridView.
